3(5b-1)=5
Get rid of the brackets
15b-3=5
add 3 to both sides of the equation
15b=8
divide both sides of the equation by 15
b=0.53
4(3y-1)=20
12y-4=20
12y=24
y=0.5
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Base = 42
Perpendicular height = 31
We need to find the value of
. It can be calculated using trigonometry as follows :

Put all the values,

So, the value of
.
Answer:
x = -4 ;
Step-by-step explanation:
6(x+3)=2(2x+5)
Distribution
6x+18 = 4x + 10
Subtract 4x on both sides
2x+18 = 10
Subtract 18 on both sides
2x = -8
Divided by 2
x = -4
Now if we have to substitute the value of X
6(-4+3)=2(-8+5)
Parenthesis first
6(-1) = 2(-3)
-6 = -6
